Solution

The linear density (m) of a string is defined as the mass per unit length. It can be calculated using the formula:

m = Mass / Length

Given in the problem, the mass (Mass) of the string is 0.180 kg and the length (Length) of the string is 1.60 m.

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

m = 0.180 kg / 1.60 m = 0.1125 kg/m

So, the linear density of the string is 0.1125 kg/m.
